Mr. Christopher helped me for the third time with my debt matter. He is very professional, knowledgeable and experienced. He provided a great service and I couldn’t be more appreciative. He will do in his best power to satisfy your needs. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!

Chris was very helpful, and saved me money
I got ahead of myself, thinking i needed to file bankruptcy, and/or at least start with a debt workout with my creditors. Chris refused to take my money, and told me that i needed to wait several months to even think about taking action. I appreciate his honesty, and helpfulness. If i do reach the po...
There are many people that I meet that seem to think that bankruptcy is going to solve all of their problems. Bankruptcy does address many problems in a positive manner. But there are many people that I consult with that don't need to file bankruptcy. If so, I will without hesitation tell them not to file.

Professional Attorney
I hired Mr Lefebvre to help me same my house. As a result I filed a chapter 12 bankruptcy case. It was extremely successful. Mr Lefebvre and his staff were extremely responsive to emails.

A foreclosure can be a very scary and frightening thing. We try to do our best to work with clients to avoid this outcome. A chapter 13 bankruptcy filing is a good way to halt foreclosure proceedings and allow a family to re-organize and get back on track with their financial responsibilities. I’m glad that things worked out for you. Not every case is as successful.

There are not many attorneys that understand the complexities of a simultaneous bankruptcy and divorce filing. I am fortunate that my late father encouraged me to be knowledgeable in both of these areas of the law. I have a reputation of being the go to person in this scenario. I’m glad things worked out well and appreciate your vote of confidence.
